MONEY RAISED

The Story

In 2012, every single ING New York City marathoner and volunteer can unite to make this amazing event count toward the goal of raising over $1 million per mile.

Historically, the marathon has raised an amazing amount of money for charity with only a few thousand runners fundraising. Imagine the impact we'll have when the entire running community comes together to get involved. That day is here.

This year, New York Road Runners is partnering with CrowdRise to encourage every single runner to fundraise. You can get started with one click and we're going to make certain that being involved is super fun. You can raise money and join an official ING New York City Marathon Team or start your own fundraiser. There are no minimums and no requirements and all of the money you raise rolls up into the total amount raised and we're going to be relentless about fundraising until we get every single runner involved.

This is an amazing opportunity for the entire unified ING New York City Marathon community to raise way more money than ever and make the ING New York Marathon the most incredible fundraising event of the century.

**Starting a CrowdRise fundraiser does not guarantee you a slot in the 2012 ING New York City Marathon. If you need a guaranteed entry, you must contact the charity before setting up a fundraising page.**

It will take anywhere from 3 seconds to 1 minute for your pic to upload, depending on how big it is.

You're going to see this message every time you post a new pic. So, we're making the text really long so that it'll take you at least five picture uploads to read it all. Here's what we're thinking...While your first picture is uploading think about someone you want to kiss. When you upload your second pic think about one friend who you can beat in a race. On your third photo upload think about your favorite food that begins with the letter H. While your fourth picture is uploading think about how great it would be if you were a world class breakdancer. While your fifth picture is uploading try to think of the best candy to eat if you were a mime spending a month in New Zealand. If you upload a sixth and seventh picture please just read all of this again.

IN PROGRESS

We're setting up your Fundraiser page right now. It will take anywhere from 3 seconds to 27 seconds.
